A thousand people on the street
The rain is trying to drown my feet
The cold bites into every bone
The solemn faces pass me by
A grey veneer on buried smiles
A crowded train to take me home
If I close my eyes a minute
See a world and then I'm in it
Stand alone and grow my wings
To take me high
If I could fly
See the world beneath me
Feel as though I'm set free
Oh if I could fly
A simple smile can change a day
An understanding look can say
I know exactly how you feel
But we have learned to build our walls
So very strong and very tall
For fear of what the world might steal
If I close my eyes a minute
See a world and then I'm in it
Stand alone and grow my wings
To take me high
The rain is trying to drown my feet
The cold bites into every bone
The solemn faces pass me by
A grey veneer on buried smiles
A crowded train to take me home
If I close my eyes a minute
See a world and then I'm in it
Stand alone and grow my wings
To take me high
If I could fly
See the world beneath me
Feel as though I'm set free
Oh if I could fly
A simple smile can change a day
An understanding look can say
I know exactly how you feel
But we have learned to build our walls
So very strong and very tall
For fear of what the world might steal
If I close my eyes a minute
See a world and then I'm in it
Stand alone and grow my wings
To take me high
